Presentation of: METIERS D'ANTAN VENDEENS

I've been weaving on an old-fashioned hand loom since 1992. I used to have a workshop in the west of Paris and now, a few months ago, I opened my workshop and shop in Fontenay le Comte, Place Belliard, under the arcades.
In a superb 17th century building!
Come and discover my creations, which are all unique, and see me at work on my loom and spinning wheel.

My little plus point is the unusual nature of my spinning, as I make wool from the undercoat of dogs, cats and other animals such as alpacas, rabbits, donkeys and sheep ....
My raw material is collected from breeders, groomers and private individuals who prefer to recycle rather than send it to the dump:)

Come and discover this unique place where old trades are honoured
